Also, this is what some people refer to as 'data mining', which is not a compliment in the way that I'm using it.

For example, cotton prices will probably go up 5% tomorrow, then they'll go back down 5% the next day. Happens every day that the markets are open. It's not news. A small change in suicide rates is not news. When this stuff gets published, all that this means is that it's a slow day for news.

Whenever people talk of some noteworthy event, I first want to see the context and how noteworthy this is compared to other ones in the same arena. So as you say, let's see suicide data over many years and find what the variation is from year to year. These increases might not be trends, rather noise. And if they are trends, they might not be as significant as the absolute rate being high.

feminism too. This is what I think, so i don't have a source but feminism is pushing women into careers that are typically dominated by men, sacrificing their prime baby making years. these women who are so focused on their careers realize that their eggs are drying up and they wont be able to have kids anymore. women are biologically disposed to want kids, and if you take that away you get depressed women. women have no one else to blame except themselves, and (((The Left)))

You're not supposed to give a shit about what happens to men. They have male privilege, after all, and then there's the whole patriarchal oppression of women - all of that means that no matter how bad things are for men, it's worse for women so men aren't even worth talking about.

It's one of the many reasons I'm not a feminist. I have too many men in my life that I care about to ever want to take part in such a poisonously sexist movement. The numbers speak for themselves.
